KitchenAid KEMS378S

Model # KEMS378S

The KEMS378S is a US-market KitchenAid microwave oven. No published specification for this model was recovered, so there is no dimension or capacity quoted on this page. A number lifted from a sibling model would be worse than silence. KitchenAid’s US product site shows it in February 2013, and no later capture carries it.

Ten years and more into service, a KEMS378S is at the age where the door latch, the interlock switches and the turntable drive are the usual suspects. Being out of production, a KEMS378S has its parts position checked at the outset rather than after a diagnosis.

Most Common Issues on This Model

01

Door hinge and latch wear, so the door sits proud of the frame and the interlocks no longer line up

02

Exhaust fan noise or failure, where the unit is installed over a range

03

Grease and charcoal filters left unchanged, which shows as poor extraction and a labouring fan

04

High-voltage component failure, which is bench work for a technician rather than anything an owner can inspect

FAQ

KitchenAid KEMS378S FAQ

The plate inside the door carries everything needed: the full KEMS378S model string and the serial number beside it. With those two, a part for a KEMS378S can be identified before anyone travels out, which saves a wasted visit.

The KEMS378S is out of production, and whether repair beats replacement comes down to which component has gone. A seal, a switch or a control is usually straightforward economics on a KEMS378S; a major assembly on a machine of this age often is not, and we will say which one you are looking at.

A fault that draws current only under load, which is internal. Unplug the KEMS378S at the wall and leave it unplugged. The components involved on a KEMS378S sit behind the casing and hold a charge, so that diagnosis belongs with a technician rather than with a repeated attempt to run it.
